Bath re-enamelling in Hafod, done in place
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. If you’re dealing with chips and rust in more than one place and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Never use suction bath mats
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
Should you replace it?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hafod questions
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Hafod. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hafod?
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Stains that will not shift
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
Before booking anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- Aftercare advice
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
